like.. 'as cool as the other side of the pillow....' actually, come to think of it, it IS pretty clever
At random points throughout the day I throw my fists in the air and yell, "THADEUS RULES!" Most people are stunned into agreement.
"First we eat the pig, then we must burn" like someone else said-"That's what she said" "Take it Brandon" "Frick" And the best for last "That's a shame"
I have pretty original phrases and words that I use, but they change every month or so. My friends have dubbed them "Andyisms".
"That's just messed up." "Give me a freakin' break." "Dude. That rocks." (and "excellent" and other stuff I should have quit saying back in 1990) "Don't look at me. I'm not here." "Not the brightest light in the harbor" or "Not the brightest bulb in the chandelier" "It's like, people, get your head out of your..." (embarrassed trailing off when I realize I'm speaking to a class full of my students )
I use the Craig Kilborn style comparison-isms.. example: If I see a guy with a huge beard I'll say.. "George Lucas, that guy's hairy." or if I see a really huge woman I'll say... "Sasquatch, she's huge." Stuff like that. I also say, "And your point is.... ?" quite a bit.
"ain't no thang" - sarcastically. "don't bring that **** in my house" - whenever i get a block in basketball, which is usually around 2 a game...but if the ref is serious about calling techs for swearing, i usually say "crap" instead of ****...plus, astericks astericks astericks astericks takes a long time to say anyways. but other than that, i'm a pretty quiet player on the basketball court and i like to earn respect with offense rather than talking...i usually only say the above phrase to players that i at least talk to before the game so that they know i'm sorta joking. cuz i usually am meaning it lightheartedly.
i say bro a lot at work. No, Bro. Alright, Bro. Chill, Bro. Nice going, Bro. The Bro on the phone was an idiot.
I use this one pretty much every day: "You know what you look like to me, with your good bag and your cheap shoes? You look like a rube. A well scrubbed, hustling rube with a little taste. Good nutrition has given you some length of bone, but you're not more than one generation from poor white trash, are you, Agent Starling? And that accent you've tried so desperately to shed? Pure West Virginia. What's your father, dear? Is he a coal miner? Does he stink of the lamb? You know how quickly the boys found you... all those tedious sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars... while you could only dream of getting out... getting anywhere... getting all the way to the FBI!!!"
ah...i was just thinkin maybe it happened in the family a lot. i used to use it a lot...but since i've been living away from home (most of the time, cuz of university) i find that i use it less and less.
